Why is my Amstrad DRX180s video playback skipping and audio/video out of sync?
We have had the following problems reported by a number of Amstrad DRX180 owners: • Audio/video playback out of sync • Audio/video playback skipping and jumpingNote: Normally the above behaviour occurs when watching or recording with one of the two satellite feeds – the other feed works OK. This can occur with or without a hard drive upgrade.These problems often occur when watching TV while the Sky+ receiver is recording another channel. We suspect that the problem is affecting just one of the satellite inputs, i.e. one of the tuners. It often seems that the playback problems only affect certain channels, e.g. Channel 4 and ITV. This fault can occur with a non-upgraded Amstrad DRX180, but it also appears that upgrading the disk can cause the problem to surface. Where the fault becomes apparent after upgrading the disk, the original disk can be put back and the problem disappears. For further information on this fault with Amstrad DRX180’s and experience from other owners on pursuing BS
